Delete Variants for Transaction MASS

Is it possible to delete multiple variants for transaction MASS?
I am aware variants can be deleted one by one using Goto... Variants... Delete. However, I would like to delete over 200 variants which are no longer required.
Surely there is a standard function? Deleting hundreds of variants one at a time is not an option. Contracting an ABAP programmer is not an option.
Thanks for your advice.

Hi G. Lakshmipathi,
Your suggestion to use BDC recording worked like a charm.
However, I am still surprised that there is no standard function.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Nathan

Hi Oscar ,
You need to create optional date prompt variable in BW which fills your requirement .
Ex : If you require report should always run for 1st of the month to last of month .Then create Optional date variable in BW with interval .write customer exit ,
if from date is left blank it should take 1st of the month and if todate is left blank it should take last of the month .
when creating webi schedules , leave prompts as blank.

Display variant for transaction FBL3N - can it be protected?

Hi,
I have made a display variant for transaction FBL3N (G/L account line item display).
Can I protect this variant?
I don't like other users to overwrite it.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

Hi Linda,
Line layout variants depend on a few things.
1 authorizations.
you need to make sure general users cannot change the standard layout. This is done via settings, layout, administration.
2. Personal variants, you can create your own variant and set it up just for yourself.
This can be done by selecting the user specifc tick box. The naming will have to be different but a user wont be able to see or change your variant.
3. Lastly you can set your variant in FB00, however all this does is assign a variant to a user, someone with either the correct authorization or a variant that is not a user specific one COULD be changed.
Hope this helps.

Transaction Variant for Transaction FV60 (Parked AP Invoice)

Hi All:
I have been successful in creating a transaction variant for transaction code FV60 (Park AP Invoice). My objective was to get rid of the post and save as completed buttons on the FV60 screen. But when I simulate the document, the post and save as completed buttons appear again and I have been unsuccessful in getting rid of these and deactivating/hiding them.
Can anyone please help me or has anyone done this before?
you help is very appreciated
thanks
Brian

Hi you can hide the button as follows;
While doing SHDO Variant Creation , in the confirm screen entries dialog press Menu Functions button and in the dialog expand Function setting tree and select BU (POST) and press Deactivate button (or F2 key) then select PBBP(Save as completed) and press F2 again.
Now save the variant and activate it.
Now check the tcode, those two buttons will be hidden.
This will solve your problem.

Problem while creating transaction variant for transaction KCH1.

Hi All,
I am trying to create transaction variant for KCH1 transaction code.
I am able to deactivate standard navigation options Change, Copy, Delete for the menu called "Group" in the main screen.
But I am unable to disable the standard navigation options for the menu u201CGroupu201D in the second screen where we enter possible profit center values in hierarchal structure. I want to deactivate u201COther Groupu201D , u201CChangeu201D and u201CCopyu201D In the hierarchy screen.
Please advice.
Thanks & Regards,
Padmasri

Hi,
As I have already mentioned in my previous message, I am able to deactivate standard menu options by using Menu functions for Main screen where we provide Profit center group value which needs to be created. For this screen I have passed GUID START_CO and was able to deactivate required options. But for the Hirarchial screen, I am unable to deactivate some of the menu options. In menu functions I have passed LIST_01(GUID for the screen) and deactivated the options but was not reflecting which testing the transaction variant.
Anyone please let me know if transaction variant work for my scenario. If no please suggest a solution.
Thanks & Regards,

Creating a User-defined Selection variant for Transaction ME21N

Hi,
In transaction ME21N with the 'Document Overview' feature turned on we can view a list of standard selection variants. I would like to add a user-defined selection variant to that list. There is an OSS Note 377180 present which describes how to do that but(as per transaction SNOTE) that note cannot be implemented in our system. Is there any other way to get that done?
Any help would certainly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alam.

So I am having a similar issue. I have a fixed length flat file with 3 different record types.
1 a header ( length is 82 bytes with the first byte set to H ( single record always the first )
2 a detail record ( length is 382 bytes ) with the first byte set to D ( multiple records )
3 a trailer record ( length is 82 bytes ) with the first byte set to T ( single record always the last )
I created a UD OTD with 3 elements for each record type, RECORD_TYPE is the first field 1 byte. Matching for each on either H,D, or T. When I try and test the OTD with the Run Test button I get an unmarshal error
<SOD>""<POS>"HACCUMULAT..." failed input match, Fog#431, after <no path>: failed node: trailing junk in fixed/parent
HACCUMULATED BENEFIT TRANSACTION FILE 20080801 20080825 0 0

Not sure whats going on, so if anyone has any suggestions on where to look that would be great

Transaction Variant for VA01

Hi All,
I am able to create transaction variant for transaction code MM01, XD01 and XK01 successfully. But i am unable to create transaction variant for VA01.
And also some times i am getting error message "SAP Object SCV1(short text of variant) cannot be assigned to package ZXXX". Can you pls let me know why i am getting this error and why i am unable to create transaction variant for VA01 successfully.
Thanks,
Raju

Hi,
There is no difference in creation of the transaction variant for VA01/02. But the way it works is different. It works at order type level instead of t-code level. You have to create the variant in SHD0 and assign the same in order type customization.
Alternatively you can populate the field TVAK-VARIANT with the transaction variant name in MV45AFZZ subroutine USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELDS_TO_VBAK/USEREXIT_FIELD-MODIFY. With out this it wont work. Just try to change the TVAK-VARIANT value in debug mode and see if it works fine. Surpricingly it works fine if you individually execute the variant.
The error you mentioned might be because you might have given one of the screen variant name not starting with Z or Y.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Transaction Variant For Me21.

Can i create a transaction variant for transaction me21.
if yes, please tell me the procedure.
please help.
its urgent.

hi
good
i think you can do it , because Transaction Variants to make fields Mandatory, Hidden or Display. Also applicable to screens and tabstrips.
You can hide unwanted screens and fields in any of the standard SAP programs without changing any of the standard programs. Additional features such as making the variant as default on the standard SAP transaction code is only available as of 4.6x.
In 4.6c, you can default your transaction variant as the standard variant. (SHD0 - Edit -> Activate/Deactivate as standard variant)

Hi,
You can create variants for transaction using transaction variants. That is meant to simplify these kinda scenarios.
The tcode for transaction variants is SHD0. You can create variants as you wish. It is simple only. No coding required. Just take SHD0. Give your transaction name.
Then press create variant.
It will guide you.

1 custom field not showing up for modification in new List Variant for KS12

Dear SAP Experts,
I need some help regarding list variants using custom fields. I made a new List Variant for transaction KS12 using a few custom and standard fields. The custom fields are in CI_CSKS structure. I did all this according to not 95080 using option two (Adjust screen 1399 in function group KMA1). I got the header to display the name of the fields in SE51. The strange things is that after I start KS12 with the new list variant one of the custom fields doesn't show up for modification if there is no value in it where this is not the case with the others. That is if there is no value in it already (even on character) I can't enter new values in to it, which beats the purpose. I checked the attributes of the the custom fields and they are all the same, unless I missed something.
Does anyone have an idea why this could be?

Hi Michael - I too have exactly the same problem in Lion. It seems to be a bug.
A minor one, given all the other much larger issues I have with Lion.
I'm living with it in the expectation that someone will fix it. I notified it ages ago - long before the recent Lion update.
I am mainly using Snow Leopard. This problem doesn't happen in Snow.

Shd0 for transaction ea20

I am trying to make a transaction variant for transaction ea20.
EA20 is an ISU-CCS transaction which reverses bills.
Normally when I create a transaction variant - I go to SHD0 - enter the transaction, give a name of the transaction variant - and click create.
It goes to the transaction. I hit enter - and it goes to another screen which allows me to hide - or default certain fields. Then I save - and go on.
On transaction EA20 - I go to SHD0 - enter EA20, a transaction variant name - and click create. When I click enter - nothing happens. It stays on the same screen. If I click back, cancel or save - it shows me the wrong screen to modify. Instead of the EA20 screen - it shows me the screens to create variants.
I have read the help on SHD0 where some transactions cannot be used in transaction variants - but I don't see where this transaction falls into those categories.
Has anyone else had a problem with creating a transaction variant for a certain transaction? And if so - how did you get around it? Or what did you do to fix the problem?
Thanks for your help.
Scott Overmeyer

Scott,
Follow this process and let me know if you face any problem.
Case one for creating Transaction Variants
Step 1:
Execute transaction SHD0 and create a Transaction Variant against the original transaction.
Step 2:
As soon as you press the create button, the original screen of the transaction will appear. After pressing any button/tab on the screen a menu variant screen will appear. Make sure to check any field or tab or any button you want to disappear from the menu functions. Press the exit and save button when you are sure that no further settings are required on sub-screens (if present). After pressing the exit and save button another menu variant screen will appear. Press the save button here and save as a local object or under any development class.
Step 3:
When you are back on the Transaction Variant (SHD0) screen, press shift+F6 or click the goto menu and press the create variant transaction button. Through this transaction SE93 will be executed. Enter the transaction name you want to create and any other required field and now press the save button.
Step 4:
Now execute the transaction you create through create Transaction Variant and enjoy the results.
